I recently stayed at The Anchor Inn for $130 per night (with taxes) and wanted to share my experience. Overall, it was a decent stay, with some highlights and a few areas that could have been improved. The rooms have been nicely renovated and were clean, which I really appreciated. I stayed on the first floor with a view of the ocean, but I did have a personal concern about the balcony. The sliding glass door leading to it felt a bit too accessible, and while I know it’s probably an unrealistic fear, I couldn’t help but feel uneasy thinking someone could climb over the balcony and open the door. It’s definitely more of a personal worry, but it made me feel a bit like I was staying in a motel. As a mom of two young kids, I think I’d feel more comfortable requesting a room on the second floor or higher next time, just for peace of mind. The pool was a great spot for the kids to enjoy, but unfortunately, the hot tub was closed during our stay. Additionally, both the fitness center and restaurant were not operational, which was not mentioned during booking. I had hoped to make use of these amenities, so it was a bit disappointing not to have them available. We checked in at 2 pm, and while the hallways initially had a strong cigarette smoke smell, it seemed that the staff had sprayed the halls earlier in the morning to mask the scent. Unfortunately, as the day went on, the smell seemed to worsen, which could be an issue for anyone with respiratory sensitivities. My child had some discomfort from the smell, which was a bit frustrating. The hallway noise was noticeable, as you could hear conversations and a TV, but the room itself was much quieter. The oceanfront location was definitely a highlight, providing a beautiful backdrop and a great place for the kids to explore. Overall, my stay was a mixed experience. While the location and room quality were excellent, the lack of amenities and some of the noise issues were less than ideal. I hope the hotel can address the

The staff were friendly and welcoming. I didn’t eat breakfast as I was having surgery that morning, but my husband said the breakfast was good, nice selection.

The bed sheets had evidence that washing wasn't the last thing they had happen to them unfortunately. The breakfast was great and so was the location. Overall not terrible but not ideal either.

The hotel was clean and modern and had great amenities, spacious well laid out room and was very clean.

Great location by the river. Sunny was super helpful. Well equipped and spacious. Beds very comfortable.

Easy check in, plenty of parking, rooms were fine (not fancy, but had all thing you'd need for a basic stay). The pool was nice, as was the hot tub.

Location

It's an economy motel, but was clean, smelled fine, and had friendly staff, plus it was on the river bank. Way better than most places that charge twice as much.

Nice location for the wildlife!

The location was central to all we wanted to do. The owners are wonderful people. Had more supplies than expected. Laundry facility was great.
